Rising reinsurance costs are reshaping the economics of coastal Miami ownership, flowing directly into condo and HOA operating budgets, reserves, and ultimately monthly dues. For luxury buyers, the question is less whether dues rise and more how a building’s governance, insurance posture, and capital plan translate that volatility into predictable ownership costs.
